School Description

Wells Hall is located in the southern side of Great Cornard, which adjoins the town of Sudbury. In July 2017, our school converted to academy status joining the Unity Schools Partnership.

The school was last inspected in March 2017 and Ofsted judged the school “continues to be good.”

The school does have an excellent reputation within the community. We have two classes per year group which are usually oversubscribed. Our school includes a nursery for pupils of pre-school age.

The staff deliver an exciting and creative curriculum supplemented by a range of educational visits including residential trips. We offer a good range of extra-curricular activities that changes termly and supplements their learning in school.

Our specialist PE staff ensure that physical activity and sport maintains a high profile in our school and encourage the children to adopt active lifestyles. Wells Hall pupils have an opportunity to participate in inter school competitions and every pupil participates in The Daily Mile.

In addition to our excellent teaching staff, we have both a pastoral care and an SEN team team dedicated to providing support for those pupils with additional needs.

Our catering team provide healthy, non-processed meals that are cooked on site. Approximately 1000 meals are being served and enjoyed weekly.

The school is situated in a large attractive site and the extensive grounds include an area specifically designed for Forest Schools and a heated outdoor swimming pool (open during the Summer Term).

Adjoining our site is the local secondary school with whom we have very close links and we are able to share their resources. For example, our pupils regularly use their tennis courts and visit the Food Tech and Science Labs.

The school is an inclusive community that provides a caring, happy and welcoming environment in which to learn.

The best way to understand our school is to see it in action. If you would like to learn more about our school, please do arrange a visit.
